Appendix C / Installable Device Drivers
If
you have
three
DOS2 partitions
on
Drive C and one
on
Drive
D,
you can use:
device=mlpart.sys
c: c:
d:
c:
MLPART assigns each DOS2 partition a logical drive letter, and
tells
you
the letters.
In
doing this,
it
adheres to the order
in
which you created the DOS2 partitions. Therefore,
in
the pre-
vious example,
if
no
other block devices exist,
the
DOS2 logical
drives
are
E, F, and H on Drive C and G
on
Drive
D.
Install the device driver only once. After you
do
so, use MLFOR-
MAT
to format the partitions according to
their
logical drive
letters.
J '
SPOOLER.SYS
(For
Buffering
Data
to
the
Printer)
SPOOLERSYS is a loadable driver
that
buffers
data
to
the
printer by temporarily placing the
data
in
memory. SPOOLER
spools
the
data
to
the
printer whenever the printer is available.
In
this
way, you can continue to use your computer to process
data
while printing other data.
To
install
the
printer buffer driver, include a DEVICE command
in
your CONFIG.SYS file, using
this
format:
DEVICE= SPOOLER [lprinter] [size]
where:
...-,
J:
/printer is
the
number of
the
printer you want to use
(lor
2).
If
you omit
the
number, the system assumes
you
want to use
Printer
1. Notice
that
you
must
precede
the
number with a slash
(I).
You
can
install
two
spoolers
if
you
have
two
printers
connected.
size is
the
size of the buffer
in
kilobytes.
If
you omit size,
the
system uses 20K.
